BUTTERFLY PARK IS SET TO SPREAD WINGS

A four-day volunteer effort to revitalize a local butterfly park will culminate in an unveiling celebration Sunday at 5:30 p.m. at the park, located at Palm Avenue and East 20th Street in National City.

Live music, food and drinks are planned for the unveiling event.

Improvements at the park include planting of greenery and the creation of a public performance space complete with amphitheater-style seating, Volunteers also will install mosaic tile patterns on bench seating, tables and stairways.

The project is part of the Gathering Grounds program, which Tully’s Coffee developed in 2011 as a way to bring people together. Pomegranate Center is leading the restoration with funding and support from various partners, including A Reason to Survive (ARTS) and the San Diego Foundation in addition to Tully’s Coffee.
